spy

How do you record the most intimate moments in the animal kingdom? If you're a clever English bloke, you build lookalike "spy creatures." Filmmaker John Downer has spent much of his life capturing footage of wildlife, but it wasn't until he and his team created robotic animals with built-in spy cameras that he was able to record rare footage of animal behavior in the wild, essentially from the perspective of the animal. Step inside his workshop to see how his mechanical menagerie spies on nature's actors.
